periods of high pollution.In an attempt to throw some light on this the opportunity has been taken to study a sample of adolescents now living in London who were born around the time of the disastrous London fog of December 1952.In the first phase of the study (1970-71) 800 subjects born in 1952 were seen at an average age of 184, then in the second phase a similar sample drawn from the same areas but born in 1953 was seen, again at age
Patterns of respiratory illness in Sheffield junior schoolchildren. A follow-up study
THE study of the influence of atmospheric pollution on respiratory disease in adults is difficult, because of complicating factors such as smoking, changes in occupation, and migration. Studies in young children avoid these difficulties and the child's atmospheric environment can be fairly precisely defined for most of his life by the conditions in the area in which he lives. On the other hand, children may not show so much response as adults to …
Patterns of respiratory illness in Sheffield infant schoolchildren
An increasing volume of evidence points to atmo- spheric pollution as an important factor in the causation of respiratory illnesses. Unfortunately studies of the effects of pollution on adults tend to be complicated by smoking habits, changes of occupa- tion, changes of address, and changes in pollution levels over a period of years (Holland and Reid, 1965; Some of these complicating factors may be eliminated by careful selection of the subjects …
Incidence of Fractures, particularly of the Neck of the Femur, in Patients in Mental Hospitals
In 1870 a correspondent of the Lancet, in comment- ing on the incidence of fractures in patients in mental institutions, suggested "that important pathological facts of the kind should be communicated to the
Incidence of Fractures in Persons over 35 Years of Age
At a conference on Fractures in the Elderly con- vened by the Medical Research Council in 1956, there was much discussion on the importance of fractures of the femur in old people as a manifesta- tion of osteoporosis. Although it was agreed that such fractures occurred frequently, no precise data were available about the incidence of, as opposed to mortality from, these or other types of fractures in the elderly. A Working Party on Fractures in t…

Mortality from Rheumatic Heart Disease in Children and Young Adults in England and Wales
no difference was found in overcrowding levels between rheumatic and non-rheumatic families, and Morris and Titmuss, comparing the mortality rates from heart disease in regions of England and Wales, foundthe correlation with overcrowding incon- clusive. Savage (1931) also found no significant association between the incidence of rheumatic heart disease and crowding but, on the other hand, Perry and Roberts (1937) showed that the incidence of rheu…
